Japanese sales – Slow week for gaming in Japan

Wii U Japan 2

Sales in Japan for this week have been released, showcasing a generally poor week for the country. Yokai Watch has managed to sell more than 1 million units and continues to sell well, at 34k units moved this week. Several new titles were released this week in Japan as well, though they still haven’t broken the sales of Yokai watch.

There are no Wii U games in the top ten list, though the Nintendo 3DS continues to hold its own. Here’s a look at the software and hardware sales of this week:
